Chapter 63: The Bridge Breaks

Xie Guoping heard the commander of the garrison team mention the Jiangxin Bridge, and his heart moved, he planned to return to the port from the bridge with Chen Xin, which was also the only land route from Jiangxin Island to Far East City, if a large number of mutant creatures appeared, they would have to change their plans.

"Corpses?" , Chen Xin suddenly appeared on the side, interjected and asked, he sat next to Xu Licheng and rested for a while, and when he saw that Xie Guoping's side was over the battle, he walked over with Xu Licheng on his back. The soldiers of the garrison team also saw that the two of them had overturned a group of big spiders just now, and they all regarded them as their own people, and when they saw Chen Xin coming, no one stopped them, and directly let him go to Xie Guoping's side.

"Anyway, the situation is not good, I heard that there is already a company of the whole formation who died in battle." The commander shook his head and told the two men in front of him everything he had heard from the communicator. Originally, he was only responsible for guarding the water house, which was not much more important than the bridge, and it was absolutely reasonable to stay in the water room, but he had two very good comrades-in-arms who were also stationed by the bridge, so when he received an order from Pufa for support, he immediately led the team to rush to the direction of the Jiangxin Bridge.

Of course, the water room was blown up by Xie Guoping's grenade, which is also an important factor, since it is broken, it is meaningless for them to stay in the water room without engineers to repair it.

It's just that I didn't expect to walk for a while, and when I could just see the outline of the Jiangxin Island Bridge, I encountered a large group of big spiders, and I was caught off guard, and I lost several soldiers, and I didn't even have time to expand the defensive formation.

"Let's go together, if we want to go back to the military headquarters, the Jiangxindao Bridge is the only way, it's good to go and see the situation", Xie Guoping didn't mind revealing the news that they were going back to the military headquarters, anyway, there are more people walking together, no matter where they go, it will always be safer.

"I don't recommend going to the bridge", when everyone was about to act, Chen Xin suddenly shouted, because there was only one road like the Jiangxin Island Bridge, so he knew that the bridge must be crowded with zombies and mutants, no matter how many garrison soldiers went, they were just delivering food, relying on such light firepower, they couldn't kill the zombie corpses who wanted to cross the bridge, not to mention that there were a lot of evolutions hidden in it, even if there were only a few hundred evolutions like the "Queen of the Replicators" inside, Chen Xin dared to guarantee, None of these people wanted to leave Jiangxin Island alive.

"Huh? Why? The commander didn't know Chen Xin's details, but looking at what he was wearing, he looked more like a researcher at the Titan Company, but Chen Xinge's ability to kill the big spider just now was also seen by him, so the commander couldn't figure out Chen Xin's details, so he didn't dare to open his mouth indiscriminately.

Suddenly, "boom, boom", a huge explosion came from the direction of the bridge in the distance, attracting the attention of everyone present. On the bridge, there were bursts of black smoke, and in just a few seconds, I saw that the cable-stayed cables of the bridge began to break one by one, and the towering tower was broken into two pieces and slowly smashed into the river.

The commander stared at the bridge dumbfounded, pointing in the direction of the bridge and speechless.

Chen Xin said faintly on the side, "Okay, you don't need to know why, the bridge is gone." ”

Others don't know what the collapse of the bridge means, but the commander knows very well that the explosion just now is obviously the fleet's naval guns, and the fleet's bombardment of the Jiangxin Island Bridge means that the Titan Company has abandoned the entire port.

Jiangxin Island is the forward base of the Titan Company's invasion of the inland, and the bridge connecting Jiangxin Island and the port is the only transportation hub between Jiangxin Island and the inland.

Therefore, the collapse of the Jiangxin Island Bridge announced the bankruptcy of the Titan Company's westward expansion plan, and at the same time showed that the defense strength of the Titan Company on Jiangxin Island could not stop the corpses and mutant creatures that flocked to Jiangxin Island.

"This is a big problem", the commander shuddered and took out a pack of cigarettes from his chest pocket, and did not open it for a long time.

Xie Guoping took a look, snatched the commander's cigarette case, took out two cigarette cases, and stuffed the remaining cigarette cases into his pocket.

The commander looked at a cigarette handed over by Xie Guoping, his face became even more ugly, tobacco is also a rare commodity in the Titan Company, he privately stored a lot of pure water to change some cigarettes, Xie Guoping rubbed a cigarette and smoked it, but the whole package was taken away, what is it to keep only one for himself? !

It's just that the situation is stronger than people, Xie Guoping and the one next to him, it seems that the combat power is definitely not something that ordinary people can resist, he can only take the cigarette.

"Hey, brother, is there a fire?" , Xie Guoping saw that the commander had no intention of lighting a cigarette, and patted the commander on the shoulder again.

The commander reluctantly took out a disposable lighter from his trouser pocket and leaned over to light Xie Guoping's fire.

Sure enough, the commander lit his own cigarette, and Xie Guoping put the lighter in his pocket. When Xie Guoping was in the military department, he never used his connections to get half a benefit, and his idle position did not get the cigarettes quota of the military department, so he endured it for a long time and never smoked a cigarette.

Usually I don't see cigarettes, but when I saw the commander take out a pack, my addiction to cigarettes immediately became addicted, and it didn't matter if the commander was an enemy friend, anyway, I helped them just now, and this pack of cigarettes was even the reward just now.

Xie Guoping took a deep breath, feeling that the cells in his whole body were activated, and slowly exhaled a cloud of smoke.

After the commander also took a few puffs, he seemed to relax, and he didn't think about the consequences of the bombing of the bridge, let alone Xie Guoping snatching his cigarette.

Smoking cigarettes, neither of them was willing to speak, Xie Guoping even smoked the butt of the cigarette before reluctantly throwing it on the ground, and only after crushing it hard did he spew out the cigarette in his mouth.

"What's next for you?" , took the commander's half a box of cigarettes, Xie Guoping was actually still a little embarrassed, thinking that if the garrison team needed his help, he could take a hand.

"In this situation, we can only return to the water treatment plant first. However, the equipment of the water treatment plant was blown up by a grenade and an engineer was needed, so if you can, please go to the headquarters to apply for one. "The head of the commander and the headquarters are not familiar with it, and it was only when he got the director of the headquarters staff office that he got this pretty good oil and water position, but it is limited to the level of monthly filial piety, and if you really want to trouble the director of the staff office with such a trivial matter as applying for an engineer, I am afraid that I will be beaten out by the guards of the headquarters.

Just now, Xie Guoping admitted that he knew Commander Hu and the leaders of the research institute, so it was very appropriate to go to help communicate with the maintenance project, and it could be regarded as comforting his bag of cigarettes that was destined not to come back. As long as the water treatment equipment is repaired earlier, the island's pure water supply can be restored one day sooner, and of course, the extra pure water can also fall into the small coffers of the garrison team.

Xie Guoping was a little embarrassed, the grenade was released by him himself, fortunately it didn't kill anyone, otherwise I'm afraid there would be no such a good atmosphere now, but since the commander made this request, he would also accept it, but as for whether Hu Ningkun would buy him, Xie Guoping could only "hehe".

"When I go to the headquarters, I must do a good job for my brother, and strive to arrange an engineering team to repair it as soon as possible, and I will not forget my brother's cigarette." Xie Guoping patted the commander on the shoulder, and prepared to turn around and leave without even asking his name. Since he forcibly took the commander's cigarette, he has become a little troubled, for fear that the other party will ask for it to come back, and he just wants to leave early.

Chen Xin couldn't stand it, knowing that he would definitely not go to the headquarters here, let alone say a word to Hu Ningkun, but the commander looked good, so he took out a card from the side of his backpack and handed it to the commander, "This is my identification card, if, after this battle, everyone is still alive, you can take this to Deputy Director Xia Li, she should be willing to help with small things." ”

The commander was overjoyed, he had no shortage of resources in his hands, and the extra pure water was the best exchange, but because there was no one to introduce him, even if he had excess pure water in his hands, he couldn't send it out. With Chen Xin's words just now, the commander already felt that the bombing of the water treatment room was not a bad thing, at least he made friends with Chen Xin of the research institute.

The commander looked at the identification card and warmly shook Chen Xin's hands, "Brother Chen, if you have a need for water on the island in the future, just tell me, good water pipes are enough." ”

Chen Xin smiled, maybe the commander had never lived in the guest house of the research institute at all, and he didn't know that even the bath water in the guest house was treated, but Chen Xin didn't need to tell him, many things, I don't know if there is a better situation, but it is easier to satisfy.

The commander was a little mistaken, thinking that Chen Xin felt that he was not interested, and a look of struggle suddenly appeared on his face, gritted his teeth, reached into the inside of the bulletproof vest, and took out a box from the close-fitting compartment, "Brother Chen, you put this thing away." ”

When Chen Xin heard the commander's words, the expression on his face also changed, he shook his hand and said with a smile, "Comrade commander, you really don't need it, everyone just work hard to survive." ”

After speaking, Chen Xin himself felt a little stunned, he didn't know that he said the word "comrade", maybe Chen Xin felt that he refused to accept bribes, especially like the people's soldiers in his memory.

Xie Guoping seemed to have heard this word too, sighed secretly, raised his head, and didn't know if it was because he didn't want others to see his expression and the corners of his eyes.

Chen Xin didn't think about it so much, and under the commander's stunned gaze, he picked up Xu Licheng and followed Xie Guoping forward.

It was noon, although it was on the beach, but there was not even a trace of wind, the sun hung in the middle, shining directly from the sky, shining white on Chen Xin and Xie Guoping's bodies, the commander looked at the figures of the two in the distance, and felt particularly dazzling, and his heart seemed to be burned hot.
